Working With An Interior Designer

HE TEAM! Your interior designer can be an integral part of assembling your
design team; whether it be for renovating an existing space or building a new home.
The professional can work with you to select an architect and a contractor who
shares your vision and will work in tandem with your designer so that you have a cohesive team.
If you are thinking about building, your designer can help you avoid discrepancies such as

window locations, walls long enough to accommodate the interior designer’s proposed furnishings
or client’s existing pieces; or electrical outlet locations as just a few examples. In addition to
interior considerations, decisions can be made to coordinate exterior decisions (i.e. roof color)
to the desired interior design concept in order to create a consistent “look” inside and out.
Once you have decided upon a location, your interior designer will begin “space planning”.
The designer’s primary function is to find out what expresses you so that your home can be a true
reflection of you.
Selections of furniture and furnishings of the right scale are needed to fit the rooms into
which they are placed. Selecting the right colors is difficult for most people and must be carefully
determined. The trained designer can help you achieve a congruous effect. Instead of
selecting your furnishings because you “love” each item, you must consider whether the selections
complement each other. It is like putting on a show, there are “stars” and there are supporting
players. Each piece of furniture should have some appropriate relationship to everything else in
the space and each space should join the other spaces in a smooth transition. Your home should

have a feeling of flow; there should be unity in both color and design.
Locating and hiring the workers, obtaining the materials and seeing that a quality job is performed are skilled tasks that an experienced interior designer brings to the table. The designer has
developed a continuing long-term relationship with their workers and suppliers which assure better
service and more consideration if a matter of dispute arise. This is a HUGE value for design clients.
An interior designer can help establish a budget, based on the size of the space, the desired look
and the level of quality. Many clients fail to realize the large number of items that are needed in
the composition of the design of the entire space being considered. This is required knowledge in
order to get an accurate estimate for a grand total.
The professional designer can rightfully be expected to coordinate the various trades in
an orderly way so that the work is completed in an effective way. And finally, a conscientious
interior designer arranges the new furnishings and furniture, helping with the choice of useful and
decorative accessories. Even more importantly, they can show you how to accentuate and display
your own artwork and integrate your personal possessions into the overall design scheme.

What’s new pussycat?
A
fter attending both the October 2011 Furniture Market
in High Point, North Carolina as well as the Las Vegas
Winter Furniture Market, Cary shares that it was
interesting and informative to see the new trends in the world of furnishings.
Optimism is a word that comes to mind as colors are becoming
bolder with the Pantone color of the year being “Tango Tangerine”.
Paired with lavender or orchid and scattered with neutrals like grey
and white makes for an exciting yet livable room. The “Global Views”
showrooms did this look very well.
Graphic patterns like flame stitches, chevrons and geometric designs
are the new “must haves”…. A recurring design from the April market
is “IKAT” now appearing in rugs, pillows, bedding, wall coverings and
upholstery coverings. This Indonesian fabric fits into contemporary,
traditional and transitional room settings as well.
Still showing signs of popularity is the trend of “industrial”
elements being incorporated into residential design. The juxtaposition
of an unrefined metal table or shelf paired with a posh velvet sofa
creates “tension” and therefore an interesting composition. The mix
of masculine and feminine pieces like these allows everyone to feel
comfortable in the space. A favorite “trendy” piece that exemplifies this
mix is by Bella Luna; a crystal chandelier in the manner of a Waterford
fixture has a metal cage placed over it… an industrial chic creation.
Another favorite trend is the continuing use of mid-century pieces.
The post-World War II years were a time of great optimism and the
exuberant furnishings of this period expressed this positive outlook.
“Arteriors” displayed a wonderful mid-century inspired writing table in
artist who was the guest speaker at Cary’s commencement exercises as he
bright red lacquer… it made us smile just to look at it!
was graduated from Parsons School of Design (New York City) in 1982.
Yet, another interesting recurring theme Cary noticed in several
Cary really liked the texture of these monochromatic pieces as well as the
showrooms in High Point was the use of three-dimensional wall
fact that they are made from found objects which fits so nicely into the
sculptures or assemblages in the style of Louise Nevelson, the renowned
“Green Movement” in design.
Interiors By Cary Vogel Charitable Involvement
C
ary was honored to be one
of the designers asked to
hand-decorate a paddle as
an auction item for the American Breast
Cancer Society’s 2011 “Regatta for
the Cure” held at Lake Las Vegas in
September, 2011. We raised funds for
a great cause and the project allowed
Cary to express his inner-artist! See
the below photo for the final result.
Cary was also honored to be asked
to provide a silent auction item for
Junior League’s “Paint the Town Red”
annual fundraiser supporting the
health and wellness of our community.
The donation was five (5) hours of
interior design consultation time and
Cary is looking forward to assisting
the auction bid winner!
Another most worth cause that
Interiors by Cary Vogel assisted is
“Baby’s Bounty” with our donation
of a bronze candlestick and 3 hours
of interior design consultation as an
auction item for a recent fundraiser
held in The Ridges. This organization
provides essential items to babies
born into low income families.

“Highlights From High Point…”
And Las Vegas
T
he furniture exposition held in High Point, North Carolina was filled with great
shopping days, informative seminars and wonderful gatherings and soirees. We
actually attended a cocktail reception hosted by Architectural Digest. The guest
list was an exciting “who’s who” in the design world. We enjoyed meeting Mary McDonald and
Martyn Lawrence-Bullard, renowned designers now appearing on Bravo’s Million Dollar
Decorators. Cary actually held Mary’s Hermes Birkin Bag as she wanted him to feel how heavy
it was (it was heavy) and a beautiful shade of green leather, he added.
The Las Vegas market also proved to be equally engaging as High Point. The guest lecturers at
the seminars included such dignitaries as New York designer and color guru Jamie Drake (whom
we breakfasted with), as well as interior designer and authority on antiques, Thomas Jayne. A total
counterpoint was Priscilla Presley, who has just collaborated with a furniture showroom to produce a new line of home furnishings. She was lovely to chat with. Monica Pederson, from HGTV,
along with Julie Smith Vincenti presented the First Look seminar which included a quote from
Interiors by Cary Vogel that featured a photograph of a room decorated by the firm. Monica and
Julie spontaneously invited us up to the stage to discuss the room’s décor. We also met Genevieve
Gorder, from HGTV, and had a fun-filled photo session. And, the World Market Center filmed
Cary discussing the attributes of the Las Vegas Design Center…All great fun!
